Riki

Rickolette “RIKI” Simmonds is an intriguing young vocalist creating a buzz both at home and on the international circuit. Born in Jamaica but raised in Cleveland, the emerging young talent brings a style that is anchored in R&B but expands impressively into her own very emotive ‘new soul’ sound. Lyrically, she meditates on love’s euphoria, the legalization of herb, and her bittersweet push-and-pull romance with her Jamaican roots. Vocally, she’s reminiscent of Erykah Badu, adding to the self-described ‘soul rebel’s charisma and talent. I'm a creative you won't know me, I'll evolve with the time.
